    For a small hand though and for trial purposes the inner tube would be the ticket.

    It's thin enough that it allows the rather aggressive pattern on the grip to show thru but the tube takes all the bite out of it.

    The Qwik Grip does add just a bit of bulk. If you have smallish hands I'd try the tube first. The Qwik Grip as I recall is not terribly expensive so even if you get one and don't like the bulk your not out much.

      CM9 Grips

      I love the Talon grips on my CM9. Made a big difference and they look perfect (just make a clean cut when installing)

        +1 on the Talon Grips. Very different than the Qwik-Grip in that the Talons will not appreciably increase the size of the grip, and the Talons look and feel excellent.

          I had read back some time about the inner tube and thought I had written down the size of tube that works best on the PM/CM9s but now can't find it. Would you by any chance recall the tube size needed for the grip?

            I think it's 1.75. Wynn had a post that mentioned it.

              The 1.75" is a good size. You don't want a big loose one that moves around. That size works on P380s up to the PM45.The rubber does stretch and it gets easier to move the grip around.

                +2 on the Rubber Talon Grips. Have 'em on my CM9 & G26, couldn't be happier. Really don't even know they're there & takes away the "Cheese Grater" feel. Pic of mine so you can visualise.

                    Hogue jr for me. I used windex on the frame and slide it on. Then heated and dried with a hair dryer. Mine has been on 3-4 months now and has not moved at all. I think windex and a hair dryer are key. Guessing the heat molded the rubber a bit into the cheese grater grips and shrank the rubber for a snug and locked in fit.

                      Talon grip really did the trick on my PM40. My first trip to the range with the factory grips and 300 rounds really chewed my hand up.

                      I ordered and installed a Talon rubber grip, and absolutely LOVE it. Nice positive, consistent grip and ZERO discomfort, even after a couple hundred rounds.

                      One of the best $15 investments I've ever made. Looks and FEELS great!

                        I have the talon grips on my CM9 but I am running thr sand paper verison. I think that may work for you because it enhances the grip on the gun ten fold, you'll feel like you have a much surer grip but I dont think it will be too rough on your hands. The sand paper also really makes the gun look allot nicer.

                          I like the Hogue Handall Jr. It fits the PM9 just fine and stays in place. You'll need to possibly trim off some of the bottom if you locate where I have (to get a bit more room below the trigger guard and finger swell on the grip. Depends on the size of your hands. A Pearce Mag extension on the 6 round mag makes a big difference in getting a secure and firm grip on the firearm.

                            The grips front texture was like a cheese grater on my hands. A piece of bicycle inner-tube made all the difference for me.

                              I have small hands and I did not want to add size to the grip.

                                The grips on these Kahrs are too small even for small hands. (Me, too. My hands are so small that small men's gloves are too large.) But I didn't want the palm swells or finger grooves of the Hogue Handall. So I went with the Qwik Grip which is not a whole lot thicker than an innertube, but looks much better with the even texture and smooth edges. And it feels just great, providing a very secure purchase on the gun yet is not tacky.

                                In fact, these Kahr grips are so small and the trigger reach is so short that I intend to experiment with something on the back of the grip under the Qwik Grip. Here is a post in another thread where I discuss it. (Now, if I would just get off my duff and do it! )
